Server2003 R2 iso files help

I just downloaded the 2 iso files for
server2003 R2 inoder to burn to DVD
a bootable image.

After the download was complete I
just dragged the two iso files
from my desk top to the burning software
and the DVD burned the image as 2 indivdual
iso files. I don,t think that this actually
created a bootable image because when I tried
to boot of from DVD I got "No Bootable image
found" I am using VMware Workstation to boot
the image as well. I have already been
successful building Solaris 10 x86 from the
VMware but the boot CD was already created
prior to me loading it. I have a feeling
I need to merge these iso files before
attempting to burn them.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

You are right easch iso apparently has to go on it's
own CD. Also, this image was to be booted under
VMware. There is an option in the VMware to boot
of iso files. So I told VMware where the 1st iso
file was and it started booting. I thought that was
pretty cool. Tnen at the installation it was looking
for a 2nd CD "the next iso file". So what I did
in that case was burn the iso back to DVD selected
my computer and clicked on the D:\ DVD.

So actually started the boot by directing VMware
to my desktop 1st iso file then finished the install
by DVD with the 2nd iso. Install complete!!!!
